I’m a Computer Science student at the University of the South Pacific, pursuing a BSc in Computer Science with a minor in Physics — building a broad foundation across software development, networking, system administration and information security.

My work spans web application design, database integration, testing and deployment, along with practical networking: IP addressing and subnetting, routing and switching, network security, server administration, cloud fundamentals, monitoring and disaster recovery. I have a strong interest in cybersecurity, secure systems and technology solutions that serve organizations and communities across Samoa and the wider Pacific.
